Abstract: In one embodiment, a spinal fixation assembly includes an elongated member, such as a spinal rod, configured for placement adjacent the spine and a bone engaging fastener, such as a bone screw having a lower portion configured for engaging a vertebra and a head that is at least partially spherical. The assembly further includes a receiver member defining a bore therethrough from a top end to a bottom end, a recess for receiving the head of the bone screwing fastener therein, and a lower opening at said bottom end of the receiver member through which the bone screw extends. The recess is configured to at permit pivoting of the bone screw within the receiver member until the head is fixed within the recess. The receiver member also includes a channel communicating with the bore and having an upper opening at the top end of the receiver member for insertion of the spinal rod into the channel. In one embodiment, two compression members are provided, each being formed of a temperature responsive material and having a first configuration at a first temperature and a different second configuration at a different second temperature in which the compression member contracts about a portion of the receiver member to thereby compress the receiver member about both the head of the bone screw within the recess and the spinal rod within the channel.

Abstract: This invention relates to flexible packages (Fig. 1) having an openable and resealable interlocking closure 22 and to methods and apparatus (Fig.7) for making the same from a continuous web of flexible film 25, the closure 22 being formed transversely to the direction of film flow across one end of the package 20 during package formation at line speed. A converter device 29/31 mounted atop or adjacent to standard packaging apparatus 33 forms a small amount of the running packaging film 25 into the resealable closure structure 22 as an integral part of the film 25 extending transversely to the long dimension of the package 20. The converter functions with both horizontal and vertical form/fill/seal wrapping machines and with overwrap packagers, and uses diverse packaging films such as polypropylene, polyester, polyvinyl chloride, high and medium density polyethylene and various film laminations. Package formation begins by feeding the plastic packaging film 25 into the converter 29 where the film is first automatically fanfolded across the entire width of the film to form a stack, the layers of which are immediately heat sealed together forming a multilayered semi-rigid strip 30 of typically one half inch width extending completely across the film width in plane with the film. The number of folds in the stack varies depending on the thermoforming properties and thickness of the particular film being used. The resealable locking feature 22 is next thermoformed at 31 into the multilayered strip 30 which then continues through the packaging machinery 33 in the usual manner, encircling the product 34 and passing through the end sealer 35 where the package ends are sealed, as at 21a and 21b, and cut, and the front and back film panels 23 and 24 are pressed together closing the resealable locking feature 22. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: To regulate a cooling system operation, a value from an energy value sensor such as a thermostat (28) or pressure trol (40) is sensed and, if the value warrants a call for compressor operation, the call is made. The last compressor off-call-time (T0-T2) is stored in memory (61). If the off-call-time (T0-T2) is less than a short-cycle interval (T2-T3), the compressor (41) is delayed to allow substantial compressor pressure equalization. Compressor operation is delayed further for a percentage of the off-call-time (T0-T2). Compressor on-time (T1-T2) is also measured and, if on for a substantial interval, the compressor (4) is given a short rest (T3-T4). Improved efficiency results.
